Tiny Marketing: Marketing and Sales Systems for Independent Consultants Ep 92: Be the Insta-BFF at Networking Events
Can networking be fun and effortless? Jenna Kimball, recruiter extraordinaire at Dentsu International, assures us it can be! Join us as we share entertaining personal stories, including our instant connection at an American Marketing Association event, to illustrate the power of a positive mindset in networking. Jenna reveals her secrets to flipping limiting beliefs and turning networking into an enjoyable game. Learn how to ease into conversations with curiosity and enthusiasm, and set manageable challenges to boost your confidence. From asking engaging questions to volunteering at events, Jenna's tips will transform your networking experience into one of genuine enjoyment and success.
In the second part of our chat, we delve into the nuances of building and maintaining authentic professional relationships. Jenna and I discuss moving beyond rote questions and using open-ended prompts to create more meaningful connections. Get practical advice on re-engaging with former contacts through LinkedIn and setting the stage for casual, no-pressure catch-ups. We'll also tackle techniques for staying in touch after networking events, such as using group texts, setting reminders, and engaging in event-specific communities on platforms like Slack. Plus, we give you a sneak peek of our upcoming workshop, "Five Ways to Network Without Being Awkward," where you'll gain even more actionable strategies to network with generosity and service at the forefront.
